Singer Gareth Asher: Keeping Up With Family Tradition

If you have been following When We Speak TV
throughout the years then Gareth Asher is definitely not a new face to you. 
Back when we first began, Gareth was one of our very early interviews.  
We can never forget that day in  2012, meeting with Gareth on the balcony of Eddie's Attic in Decatur, GA.   
Picture
Picture
The entire interview was amazing but what took the interview to  the next level was when Gareth took out his guitar and began to sing for Jermaine Sain.  "I have the perfect song for you", Gareth tells Jermaine as he prepares his guitar to play and sing.  
Once Gareth began to sing, it was like watching a live music video recording.  His voice was so soothing and the guitar accommodated his vocals so perfectly!

CHECK OUT GARETH ASHER'S 2012 PERFORMANCE

Recently, When We Speak TV caught back up with Gareth Asher for a segment of What Do YOU Speak?.  It was so great to hang out with him and see that he is continuing the family tradition.....(Check out the video and you will know what the family tradition is).....

The ATL Actors Awards are coming back to Atlanta!

If you live anywhere in the Atlanta metro area, you are aware that the film industry in Atlanta is continuously growing.  At this time, there are so many productions shot in Atlanta and Georgia, that it's too hard to keep up with what's shooting.  This has definitely opened up a door for actors in Atlanta to get more roles and opportunities. 
In 2018, When We Speak TV, attended the ATL Actors Awards honoring those very actors for their dedication and hard work in the film industry.   The really great thing about the ATL Actors Awards is that the creator, Kelvin "K Chill" Harris says he didn't want to have people vote like some of the other award shows. 
THE ATL ACTORS AWARDS IS COMING BACK TO ATLANTA FOR A 3RD YEAR!!!!
